Very Warm, Indeed

Spain’s most effective weapons against wildfires are its Kamov Ka-32 helicopters, but sanctions prevent the supply of spare parts from Russia and the attention of Russian maintenance technicians, so the fleet is grounded as the country burns. Yet heatwave or no heatwave, it was snowing in London. Since Andy Burnham dressed up as Volodymyr Zelensky to greet him, all visitors from abroad should insist on the same, devising ludicrous national costumes for the purpose.

In an attempt at formal merger between the war in Ukraine and the war with Iran, Zelensky accuses Russia of providing Iran with satellite imagery of American bases in the Gulf. Donald Trump says that he will look into the matter and ask Vladimir Putin directly. Now remember how, and by whom, Jeremy Corbyn was mocked and worse when he suggested asking Putin whether Russia had had any involvement in the still unexplained events at Salisbury in 2018. Where are the Skripals?
